A WSU sorority hired seven buses from Durham’s Spokane fleet to shuttle about 300 students to downtown Coeur d’Alene. Drivers said the students were drinking alcohol on the journey without a permit to do so. (SR file photo)

Those caravans of school buses headed down the highway may not be carrying elementary students on a field trip or a high school track team to a district meet.
